Sensirion,
the world's leading manufacturer of high-quality sensors and
sensor solutions for the measurement and control of humidity,
gas and liquid flows, will be at the COMPAMED 2015 trade fair
to present its new autoclavable mass flow meters, the SFM3200-AW
and the SFM3300-AW, for the first time. The autoclavable and
washable sensors boast high precision and robustness. They are
especially well-suited for measuring respiratory flows in medical
applications such as artificial ventilation or anesthesia.

Sensirion's new
SFM3200-AW and SFM3300-AW mass flow meters are autoclavable,
meaning they can be sterilized and reused. Comprehensive tests
with outstanding results have verified that the sensors remain
fully functional after repeated wash and autoclaving cycles.

The SFM3200-AW
and SFM3300-AW mass flow meters are particularly well-suited
to expiratory or proximal flow measurements and flow measurements
for drug delivery. They offer high-precision flow measurements
of air, oxygen and other non-aggressive gases. The SFM3200-AW
is designed for an extremely low pressure drop in the sensor
element, making the flow meter especially well-suited to expiratory
flow measurements in medical applications. The sensor boasts
high precision at very low flow rates and also at rates up to
250 slm. It offers a very fast signal processing time and robustness
to rough handling and adverse conditions.

The SFM3300-AW is entirely bidirectional, with the capacity to
measure flows of up to 250 slm in both directions. It is particularly
well-suited to measuring proximal flow in medical ventilation
and other respiratory applications since the dead space with
respect to the pressure drop has been kept to a minimum. The
somewhat greater pressure drop compared to the SFM3200-AW offers
greater stability for varying inlet conditions such as those
occurring with the proximal measurement. Both sensors can be
connected via medical cones for the pneumatic connection to the
breathing cycle and have a mechanical interface for a user-friendly
electrical connection.

Like all Sensirion
sensors, the SFM3200-AW and SFM3300-AW are based on the patented
CMOSens&REG; Technology, which enables the integration of sensor
and signal processing circuitry on a single tiny CMOS silicon
chip. The result is an ultra-precision system that offers long-term
stability for sophisticated and cost-sensitive applications.
The technology can also withstand considerable environmental
effects, which is why CMOSens&REG; based flow sensors are perfect
for use as sterilizable sensors.

Come and visit
Sensirion from November 16 to 19 2015 in Düsseldorf at the
COMPAMED trade fair, hall 8a, booth H19.6 and find out more about
the new autoclavable mass flow meters for medical applications.
